It all started on one Friday the 13th back in March. Two young twenty-somethings who had been dating each other for quite some time were getting ready to go on a trip. In this story, the young man's name is Glen (me), the cute young woman's name is Emily. We were going on a trip to a bed-and-breakfast at Keuka Lake to spend a weekend tasting wines from the local wineries
After settling in at the fancy bed-and-breakfast, we got some dinner and relaxed for the evening. Emily was a little disappointed though. To her, it did not feel like our vacation had started yet. I had an idea though. I looked into her eyes, and began to tell her some of the things I loved about her. How she is intelligent, funny, supportive and somehow understands me. I told her she is like one of the puzzle pieces that is falling into place to make up the picture of my life.She thought I was just giving her a compliment, but I had something else in store. It was at that point, I pulled out a small box and went down on one knee and asked Emily to marry me.
She said yes. And thus begins the first chapter of what I hope to be a long and happy story.
